What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this gale warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Anchorage, AK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this gale warning went out at Nov 26, 8:06 AM AKST, 7 hours 36 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Nov 26, 8:06 AM AKST, 7 hours 36 minutes before
Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion...CORRECTED... National Weather Service Anchorage AK 806 AM AKST Tue Nov 26 2019 .ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS... A strong upper level low is currently centered over Siberia. Despite becoming vertically stacked, the associated surface low has not significantly weakened yet and a front continues to track west to east across the Aleutians bringing gusty southerly winds and moderate to locally heavy rain extending from Adak through the Pribilofs, with snow occurring over the Kuskokwim Delta. Cold air remains in place farther east as an upper level ridge has moved well into interior regions this morning. As such, temperatures have fallen well into the single digits across much of Southcentral and below zero in the Copper River Basin with associated clear skies and light winds. With the relatively much warmer temperatures in the Gulf, a strong pressure gradient is building near the coast subsequently causing strong northerly winds through terrain gaps. && .MODEL DISCUSSION... Models are in good agreement with regards to the front tracking across the Kuskokwim Delta extending southwestward through the Pribilofs and Aleutians. Latest models are gradually trending towards a more westward solution with the next low moving in from the North Pacific. This would lead to stronger southerly winds in the Gulf and subsequent warmer temperatures across Southcentral. Although confidence is growing, much uncertainty still exists. && .AVIATION... PANC...LIFR conditions will generally persist through mid-morning. The fog is expected to slowly dissipate after sunrise and VFR conditions will continue thereafter through Wednesday morning. There is a slight chance of MVFR conditions this afternoon as snow showers move across the terminal. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)... The clearing overnight in Southcentral will be short lived as the clouds from the next system are streaming across the Alaska Range and into the region this morning. The main change in the forecast is that the secondary low that will develop south of the Alaska Peninsula tonight and then moves northeast looks like it will track a little farther west. The result from this movement is a generally warmer and windier forecast for Southcentral. This should still bring in a heavy snowfall to the Alaska Range, but the snow will turn to rain Wednesday night or Thursday in the eastern Kenai Peninsula with this warmer forecast. The Anchorage forecast is all about the wind direction. This has been difficult one to discern as any southeast winds that make it into the city out of Turnagain Arm will instantly jump temperatures into the 40s. However, the gradient does look like the winds should turn down Cook Inlet as they exit Turnagain Arm which will keep the winds in town from the north to northeast and therefore remain (just) below freezing Wednesday and Thursday. This is a fine line and it is possible that the winds will mainly be northeast, but west and Southwest Anchorage could see a brief switch to Southeast especially on Thursday. The below freezing surface temperatures with warmer air aloft also raises the possibility of freezing rain. The most likely scenario keeps most precipitation that does fall as snow (however not much) as the potential for no precipitation due to downsloping is increasing. It is possible that those southeast winds could come crashing into the city again like last week and bring widespread 40 degree temperatures, but that looks less likely at this time. This scenario will be re-evaluated for the next forecast package. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 through 3: Today through Thanksgiving Day)... The weather pattern across Southwest Alaska is expected to remain very active over the next 3 days. Starting with the present, the Coastal Flood Advisories remain in effect. The high tide that will produce the greatest impacts is expected later on this morning. Meanwhile the front that is rapidly scouring out the cold air in place just 24 hours ago is causing precipitation over much of the western half of Southwest Alaska. Areas that began as snow are warming above freezing, with the changeover to rain already through Hooper Bay. While it is still snowing in the Bethel area currently, the changeover to rain should be within the next few hours, as temperatures are already into the mid 30s, and should continue warming through the day today. Coastal locations in Bristol Bay are already above freezing with Dillingham starting out as rain. The rain/snow line will continue to advance eastward into portions of the southern and western Lower Kuskokwim Valley today. Sleetmute and Sparrevohn may mix with rain at times, but for the most part will remain snow. The front is expected to stall out over the Kuskokwim Delta for much of the day today, with rain as the main precipitation type. For areas east of the Kuskokwim Mountains, the precipitation will be much more intermittent today, and for the most part will be rain across Bristol Bay and snow for the Lower Kuskokwim Valley. A relative break in the precipitation in these areas are expected from this afternoon through much of tonight, while rain continues in the Kuskokwim Delta. On Wednesday, a North Pacific low will move up along the stalled out front into Southwest Alaska, reinvigorating the precipitation east of the Kuskokwim Mountains from south to north through the day. This will cause widespread rain and strong winds through the Alaska Range gaps across Bristol Bay. These winds will move north into the Lower Kuskokwim Valley as the parent low tracks north. With cold air expected to remain on the back side of the low, much of this occasionally heavy precipitation will fall as snow, with amounts of 15 to 21 inches and locally higher amounts almost everywhere east of the Kuskokwim Mountains. Thus, a Winter Storm Watch has been issued for heavy snow that will be wind-swept as well in the gusty winds. Temperatures hovering just below freezing will make the snow wet, which in turn should prevent much drifting and resuspension of freshly fallen snow. Thus, whiteout conditions are expected to be the exception, not the rule. Nevertheless, the snow could fall heavily enough at times to drop visibilities to a half mile or less. There is currently a very large discrepancy in the models as to how Thanksgiving Day shapes up weatherwise. Cold air following behind the Wednesday low on northerly winds will eventually bring all areas of Southwest Alaska back below freezing, except along the immediate coast of Bristol Bay. The question will be where a zone of heavier precipitation sets up. In previous days, this was expected to be over Southcentral and Thanksgiving was looking cold, breezy, but dry for most of Southwest Alaska. Now, the models are trending westward with that precipitation, and so the threat of snow is increasing for Bristol Bay and the Lower Kuskokwim Valley. With this portion of the event, if it happens, the precipitation type is very likely to be all snow, as cold air will be in place on gusty north winds throughout the event. This could result in a prolonged period of light to moderate snow which could persist through much of the day on Friday. In fact, one of the models that ends the snow for most of Thanksgiving Day brings it back on Friday, though amounts would be minimal as the zone of snow would be moving and much weaker. Stay tuned to future updates as the details get ironed out for Thanksgiving Day and beyond. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 through 3: Today through Thanksgiving Day)... The front that essentially is dividing the Bering in two is slowly moving east this morning. It's currently moving over Adak and Atka, through the Pribilofs, and into the Kuskokwim Delta. As the front continues pushing eastward today, snow showers are already following behind it with clear skies in between the showers. This Siberian cold air mass will overspread essentially the entire Bering Sea by Wednesday night. Meanwhile a North Pacific low will move over Bristol Bay on Wednesday morning into Southwest Alaska. On Thanksgiving Day a new strong low will move into the Western Bering and Aleutians, bringing gale force winds and rain to the area as a warmer air mass also moves in. && .MARINE (Days 3 through 5)... Southerly gales are expected to spread from west to east across the Bering and Aleutians Thursday and Friday as a front works its way across the area. Northerly Gales are expected south of the eastern Aleutians and Alaska Peninsula on Thursday and Friday with strong inflow into a low over the southern Gulf. && .LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)... Shortwave energy initially over the eastern Aleutians/Bering Sea into the North Pacific on Wednesday should progress eastward and weaken while a mid-latitude system to the south remains separated from most of this energy and eventually drops southeastward. Toward the end of the week and weekend the pattern will become more dominated by a deep upper low moving into or just inland from the extreme western/northern Bering. The overall trough containing the upper low should extend south into the mid-latitude Pacific, with the trough axis most likely reaching the eastern Bering around next Mon. Expect a downstream ridge aloft to cross the mainland around Fri-Sat and continue into western Canada. For the southern Alaskan mainland this will lead to a warming trend Wednesday and Thursday, with warmer than normal temperatures continuing through the weekend. Precipitation type will therefore be an issue for most of the extended forecast. Operational model runs and individual ensemble members display a decent amount of spread and run-to-run variability to temper confidence in the forecast, and thus it is a little below average. && .AFC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
